Hoo Jae Hann, Eun Ae Park, Kyung Hee Kim
Clin Exp Pediatr. 1990;33(8):1048-1056.   Published online August 31, 1990
In this prospective study, the relation between the Apgar scores and umbilical arterial pH at birth was assessed. 314 newborns of gestational age 24 to 42 weeks were included in this study; (95 were preterm and 219 were full-term) The l and 5-minute Apgar scores were directly related to gestational age. In preterm babies, the Apgar scores tend to be low in spite...
